Based on ourobservations of how focus groups unfolded, we also intend to explore various methodologicaloptions for further examining how students make sense of their sophomore year experiencesindividually as well as in community with peers.Lastly, in honor of the tenets of photovoice, our team plans to collaborate with universitystakeholders to host an art exhibit, which is a non-traditional dissemination product inengineering education research. We intend to facilitate a structured conversation aboutengineering identity based on this artistic display. Additionally, this research team is planning onanalyzing the study’s

By the end of the course, the student should be able to: • Implement and apply algorithms that address several key problems in robotics: sensors, localization and mapping, path planning, kinematics • Write software that interacts with robotic hardware • Choose the right methods to design and control a mobile robot for a particular

classroom because we haveexperienced, or have read about, its numerous positive benefits. Prior research shows that PBLpositively impacts students' orientation toward learning and mastery, enhances students’ interestand value, and teaches students processes such as planning, communication, problem-solving, anddecision making. We may also notice how our students seem more motivated by PBL,demonstrating greater engagement, excitement, and effort. As instructors, we too may experiencegreater motivation, connection with our students, and fulfillment when engaged in PBL. On theother hand, we may notice times when students don’t seem motivated to persist in PBL, and wemay find ourselves wondering if the problem lies with the student, the project, the

Second, clear opportunities for improvement exist in offeringprison education. Third, a gap exists in the knowledge of prison education that could be informedby this study. Specifically, this expedition focuses on the gap in knowing how participantsdescribe their experience in a prison education course that teaches an introduction to engineering.2.

The course is usually scheduled as a2-hour seminar with one additional hour of asynchronous interaction (e.g., discussion boardactivity, small group discussion, etc.). The course is taught every other year, and typically enrollsbetween 10 and 20 students per offering, primarily graduate students in a variety of engineeringdegree programs and the occasional upper division undergraduate student. Most students countthe course toward elective requirements in their MS or PhD plan of study.Table 1Sample Learning Objectives from two Global Engineering Courses Engineering in Global Context Globalization and Engineering (undergraduate

fivedifferent universities included a variety of breaks with and without a formal activity in 15different engineering courses. Numerous techniques were used, and the break lengths werevaried in different class types and settings. Student perceptions were used to determine whichmethods helped them stay engaged in the course and what methods they preferred. Facultyperspectives were also gathered on implementing breaks.“Break on Through to the Other Side” (Research Plan)To explore the use of breaks in collegiate engineering classes, a survey was administered tovarious students from the first year to the graduate level.

In future offerings, we aimto respond to student request for more hands-on activities in the introductory course. We are alsoexploring ways to add these topics to junior-level classes, including laboratory courses. As notedin recent work, students need practice developing their inclusion-related design skills in thecontext of analytical and technical practices, the common focus of middle-years courses [23].As the students who took the introductory course progress through the program, we will alsoneed to modify the module in capstone to account for their previous experience with the

Intaking up the formulations of “diversity, equity and inclusion” (or, DEI) since the early 2000s,engineering education and workforce planning in the U.S. have enacted a particular project offairness. This is one in which innate endowments of talent and fortitude, as defined by existingeconomic systems (capitalism) and epistemic enterprises (universities and occupations), willrightly result in differing degrees of economic and personal security for individuals and in which,due to the supposedly replete cultural transformations of the previous decades, race, gender andother

This feature isalso useful since students can decide whether they desire to to create their own part or if purchasinga similar part is better. Another limitation is that the tool only considers specific FFF style printers,so other forms of additive manufacturing, or other FFF style printers cannot be used due to costsvarying. A third limitation is that students in the School of ECS only have access to polylacticacid (PLA) and Glycol-Modified PCT Copolymer (PCTG) plastics, thus there is also a design forfunction consideration necessary when using the tool since acrylic or other laser cutting materialscan bear more load than such plastics.

education could foster better learner engagement, critical thinking, and problem-solvingabilities [17]. Active learning has been shown to have a multitude of positive effects in highereducation and adult learning settings, yet adoption rates by educators are still low [14].Active learning and its importance in continuing educationActive learning in adult education is particularly important because adult learners are more likelyto be self-directed than college learners. This self-directedness leads to learners desiring to havean active say in their professional development courses. Self-directed learning is a process inwhich educators start proceeding in planning, formulating their learning goals, implementing thelearning activities and strategies

is a disconnect between planned andenacted curricula [41]. Students have aligned experiences when they can build upon theirexisting knowledge base and integrate new knowledge and interpretations. In addition, coherencein a program is enhanced when educators start to think collectively about what their graduateswould need instead of focusing on their personal wishes [42].2.7 Reflective PractitionersReflective practice is more than just thoughtful practice. Schön’s notion of reflective practicewas a reaction against an instrumental notion of the teacher as a technician implementing others’knowledge in practice [43].
